Delicious dessert wine, I love this chateau and the 2006 vintage is lovely and demonstrates the elegance of Sauternes, deep gold color, enchanting nose of: key lime ,marmalade mandarin , orange peal, minerals, dried apricot, honey, canned peach, honeydew melon, citrus blossom, and honeysuckle, full body, creamy texture and lovely sweetness balanced by pleasant acidity and delightful sweet nectar finish. My score 91, drink in small format to 2023 , normal format to 2030

Outstanding breakfast wine! Perfectly ripe peach and apricot, caramelized brown sugar. Crystallized honey. Just enough acidity to keep it fresh and balanced.

The 2014 Suduiraut is quite lucid and deep in color compared to its peer. The bouquet is well defined with copious wild honey, orange blossom, quince and almond aromas. The palate is well balanced with a viscous entry, well judged acidity, fresh and vibrant with a long, persistent, lightly spiced finish. There is something “complete” about this Sauternes and I can see this repaying bottle age. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting. (Neal Martin, Vinous, March 2018)
